Method of Using the Correlation between the Surface Roughness of Metallic Materials and the Sound Generated during the Controlled Machining Process

Abstract

The article aims to use the generated sound as operational information needed for adaptive control of the metalworking process and early monitoring and diagnosis of the condition of the machined materials using a newly introduced surface roughness quality index due to the sound-controlled machining process. The object of the measurement was correlation between the sound intensity generated during cutting and the material parameters of the machined surface, i.e., the roughness of the machined surface and the degree of wear of the cutting tool. The roughness was measured during longitudinal turning of a steel billet with a P25 insert made of 12X18H10T steel and a T15K6 cutting insert made of a titanium, cobalt, and tungsten group alloy. The correlation between the sound and roughness of the machined surface was 0.93, whereas between the sound and wear of the cutting tool was 0.93. The correlation between sound and tool wear in the experiment with P25 and T15K6 cutting inserts and the correlation between sound and roughness is positive.

Surface Durability of 3D-Printed Polymer Gears

“…In the case of FDM-PLA printing technology, the most widespread method-material combination currently used, according to the coefficient of friction, the printing temperature has a non-linear influence, obtaining an optimal value for temperatures between 210 and 220 • C depending on the type of material [15]. This value can be correlated with an optimal level of finishing for the surface [16,17]. Another particularly important and not sufficiently well-documented aspect up to this point is represented by wear resistance.…”

Analysis of Roughness, the Material Removal Rate, and the Acoustic Emission Signal Obtained in Flat Grinding Processes

“…Murat et al [9] confirmed the high precision of the analysis method using AE signals for drill wear level classification from sharp to completely worn drill. Nahornyi et al [10] proposed using the generated sound during machining as the operational information needed for the adaptive control of the metalworking process and also for early monitoring and diagnosis of the condition of the machined materials. Sio-Sever et al [11] presented a prototype of a system for estimating the milling parameters from an AE signal using AI procedures.…”
